App store scraping basics

Recommended Posts

Could anyone point me in the right direction for downloading app store statistics from:

 

-the Apple App Store -The Android Market -the Amazon AppStore

 

Specifically, I'd like to get the

 

-average selling price of apps -the top selling apps

-the distribution of tablets vs. phones, etc. (e.g. how many apps are there for Honeycomb? How many for iPad?)

-total number of apps in store -free vs. paid apps

 

I've seen some sites like http://148apps.biz/app-store-metrics/

 

and http://www.appbrain.com/stats/

 

How do these sites get their data? There must be a way to export the whole app store database as a CSV file, or import it to MySQL and run queries.

 

Thanks much for any direction.
